The correct sentence is:
 
Can Sara borrow your car?
The person receiving is the borrower.
The giver is the lender.
 
 
 
Sarah could lend your car to somebody else.

The person with the power ie the one who has the object lends it. Allah has power.
The person who has no power and wants it must beg....or borrow. So I tell my students
 
BB=beg+ borrow
LL=Allah+ Lends (I hope this comment is not inappropriate)
